Progress & Diesel

Fernwood are making good progress here are a couple of photo's of the office area which is situated between the galley and the saloon. Had a call from Julia that are washer/drier has now come in, which is good news, the unit for to house this can now be made. The builder is still making noises of a December launch but seeing that Derwent 6 (which is to be launched before us) dosn't look as though it is going out within the next 2 weeks makes us very doubtful of a pre christmas launch.... they still have loads to do
engine room.
bathroom.
cratch area
sofa
livery
etc. etc.

On our last vist we met with Merrick the upholsterer and went through our requirements regarding the sofa cushions. Our goal from the start is to create a really comfy sofa, the sacrifice of this decision is that the sofa cannot be converted into a double bed but could be used as a single.

Reading on the blogs and forums about how the new diesel split system is working (or not). I decided in my idle moments to knock up a quick spreadsheet and put in on my phone so that we can work out our diesel costs, I did read of one yard making a £15.00 charge for calculating non 60/40 splits.....what!!!!!!

Just had a call from a customer up North and they need me to go up tomorrow to do some work, this means I have to basically go past the builders workshop so no doubt will not be able to resist the temptation to nip in and see how the build is progressing on the way back.
